At 05:47p -0400 07/08/2004, Thierry Lavallie didst inscribe upon an electronic papyrus:

Hi Bill,
I kind of get what you mean, but can't apply it.

tell application "Finder"
set graphicConverterPath to application file id "GKON" as alias
end tell

How do I call Graphic Converter after that?
This does not seem to work.

Tell graphicConverterPath
Activate
<...>
End Tell

Er, I got confused because he wrote "Path" but it's not a string.
Change to string:

tell application "Finder"
set graphicConverterPath to application file id "GKON" as string
end tell

tell application graphicConverterPath
activate
end tell

...but you may need a Using Terms From block as well...
